Public record

Bobby Purnell of Morgan Circle, Dudley reported that a white male in his mid 20s knocked at his door and asked for contributions for the "fire department," but not specifying which department, according to a report. The suspect asked a number of times to come inside, and asked Purnell if he spoke English after already having spoken to him. Police have some reason to believe the subjects may be targeting Hispanics by seeking fraudulent cash "donations." The suspect is described as a white male with a medium build, dark hair, about 170 pounds, approximately 6 feet tall, wearing a red T-shirt with some sort of "yellow fire design" on it, the Wayne County Sheriff's Office said.
